REST [BOOK]
REST: Choosing Peace, Growth, and Learning Holy Rest, a devotional study written with the busy woman in mind. As women, there are so many demands resting upon us, some self-imposed and some from those we love to serve. No matter how much we enjoy loving and serving our loved ones, we simply must remember to rest and refill our own cups.
REST is a monthly devotional study that explores what the Bible says about rest, and what Jesus modeled in caring for the body, mind, and soul. You’ll find it’s an exploratory journey where you’ll have brief monthly readings and simple scripture passages to review weekly as a guided Bible Study between your monthly devotionals. Originally written to be explored with one or more friends, REST is also a great journey to explore as an individual.
Available online: Purchase the individual REST devotional via Amazon, Walmart, or request via your local book store via ISBN 978-1-7363419-0-2.

PRAISE FOR REST:
“[REST] was so refreshing and had a major impact on the busiest and craziest and most stressful time of my life so far. I’m really thankful for [this study.]
Courtney M., Pre-launch reader
“I was extremely blessed to be a part of a group of ladies who went through this wonderful study. If you are looking for something to help you take time and rest, this is a wonderful book to get! For me, I am constantly on the go and busy (as most moms are). This study helped me to take a step back and just breathe.”
– Stephanie W., Facebook
“[REST] holds such a reverent and desperately needed message for women.”
Erika B, Pre-launch reader
“Amazing devotional for the busy woman/wife/mother/daughter/sister/etc. Literally the first page stopped me in my tracks! “We make time for what we treasure most, and we value most what we believe we can’t live without.” Ruth Chou Simons—this quote struck me to my core. God spoke so clearly to me about my priorities and the areas of my life that need REST. Thank you Amy Eaton, Leading From Light! I’m ready to find that REST and grow as a wife, mother, and Christian! Week one was amazing and I can’t wait for more!”
Cari W., Amazon book review
“I do not have words for what this book did for my soul. At a time in my life where I felt so depleted, at my wits end, and ready throw the towel in, Jesus came to me through this book and reminded me of the beauty of just being still in His presence. So often I go to devotional or bible studies that are too much and end up adding more to my plate instead of giving me life and peace. Rest by Amy Eaton is the opposite. It offers you space and truly represents Jesus’ heart beautifully. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.”
Jessica E, Amazon book review
I’m so excited to share this book with you and pray it is a blessing in your life. I hope that it encourages you to draw closer to Jesus and to care well for yourself through intentional rest.
Hope and peace,
Amy
